Same country, different style



Last weekend a group of eight pro-life volunteers went to Washington, the United States capital. We stayed in Alexandria, a beautiful town near Washington with nice buildings and kind people. Alexandria is close to Washington so we spent a lot of time there. We visited a lot of museums like the American History Museum, the Natural History Museum and the Holocaust Memorial Museum. The last one was the one I enjoyed  the most.
Washington is like the opposite of New York: green, quiet, nice and relaxed. They live like time doesn´t exist, they enjoy themselves  all the time. We were very surprised because people always are happy although they don’t have the best jobs in the world. We were very impressed by the happiness of one street cleaner, he was singing and polite with all the people while he worked, INCREDIBLE!! We said: that in Spain this doesn’t happen. The time stops while you walk through the Smithsonian area to Lincoln Memorial surrounded by large gardens and fountains.
Washington and New York there are two important cities in the United States, same country different style…
